Open Edit Reset mechanic in Fortnite

Open Edit Reset

Advanced mechanic


In the middle of a fight…

  • Edit open your own wall quickly so that your opponent sees you and chooses to take the shot, thinking you are open / vulnerable
  • Then just as quickly as you edited open, quickly reset your wall so that the opponent’s shot hits your wall and not you, but breaking your wall
  • Then shoot your opponent while they are open and between their shots (during their shot reset)
  • Then quickly reset your wall back to protect yourself
  • This is a tactic that they will likely not fall for twice in a row, and may not end in an elimination, but will result in protecting yourself while dealing damage to your opponent if timed and aimed properly
